It didn't work for me.
Maybe my math was poor.
Or maybe I am hard to read?
*Then again it was a program.
Looked real purdy though.

Someone explained to me how it works, but I'm still not sure I fully grasp it (math was my worst subject).....It's a math trick. And watch - the symbols next to the numbers change with each click. There's your clue.

Wow! It didnt work for you pix??? It worked every time for me and I was a bit freaked at first!!!

It is because no matter what 'two digit' number you choose and then do the sum for, each picture is the same for EVERY possible answer.

Clear as mud?
Heehee!

Very cool - but I knew what they were doing before they did it. Someone once told me about something like this a while ago.

OK Here's something funny.

Think of the number. Add both the digits. Then substract the result from the original number you thought of. Then without looking at the symbol, click the mirror. It doesn't work! But when you look at the symbols before you click, it works!

Weird!

We were doing this on a boring day of class last year, trying to figure it out, and we did, but I can't remember how- let's see.

All right, I've got it.

It's a math trick that uses the number 9. For every 10 digits, ie, 99-90, 89-80, when you do the steps that they describe, you'll get a multiple of 9- so, for 99-90, it's 81- for 89-80, 72, and so on. Notice that all multiples of 9 have the same symbol. And no matter what number you do the trick on, you'll get a multiple of 9. So that's how they 'read' your mind .
